    I thought I wouldn’t like it since I wanted the series X, but it’s pretty much the same qualities. I would pretty much recommend the X if you have a 55+ inch screen. That’s when you’ll really see the difference. Other than that, th is should suit you just well.

    If you can qualify for the financing, then buy this xbox bundle, well worth it for 25 dollars a month, you get the xbox series s and a 2 year membership of xbox game pass ultimate. also remember the game pass is already pre-loaded onto the xbox, just turn it on......

    my husband finally decided to update his Xbox since so many games are released for x and s. it's so much smaller than his previous Xbox. It's weird not seeing a disc reader.

    Although this isn't the Xbox Series X, this is more than enough for most casual gamers. It's a steal at $299.99

    The XBOX S512GB is even better than we had anticipated. My Grandson spends hours on Forza and has accomplished more than we had ever expected. Seiing it up on a large screen TV in our gazebo is the perfect environment. This product is excellent!

    I was a PlayStation guy. Had been since PlayStation 1-4. But I made the switch to Xbox series S. Best switch ever for me. Very powerful compact gaming unit. I have had it since Christmas 2022. Never an issue.

    Great system, just really needs a bigger hard drive. A third of the memory is already being used up by just the system.

    I bought an open box and you couldn’t even tell that it was previously used. No rattle in the controllers or system. If you do buy a used one, make sure whoever the 3rd party seller has good reviews. I didn’t know it’s not always Best Buy.

    I only bought this thing to resell. I’ve been a fan of xbox but I knew when both of these consoles dropped this would be the dud. It’s basically worthless... mine as well just keep your xbox one :/ If you wanna waste 299.99 go ahead but i’m going to just spend the pennies more for the Series X

    This console honestly surprised me. It was a huge step up from the Xbox one S. The loading times are very good and the resolution is also very good. I would definitely recommend buying this product if your love gaming.
